AIR BAGS
VEHICLE WAS RECALLED MONTHS AGO DUE TO DEFECTIVE AIR BAGS. CAR DEALERSHIPS HAVE NOT BEEN SUPPLIED WITH REPAIR PARTS AND I HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT MAY BE SEVERAL MONTHS BEFORE I'M NOTIFIED. I FIND THIS UNACCEPTABLE SINCE THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT CANNOT BE USED UNTIL THE AIRBAG IS REPLACED.

SAFETY RECALL NOTICE HAS BEEN RECEIVED MONTHS FOR FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR MODULE. AFTER CALLING THE DEALER, THE TOYOTA CUSTOMER EXPERIENCE CENTER, AND MANUFACTURER, THE STATEMENT WERE GIVEN AS OF 'THE PARTS NEEDED TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WERE STILL NOT AVAILABLE AND NO ESTIMATED TIME FOR RECEIVING THE PARTS COULD BE GIVEN.' LIKE TO MARK MY COMPLAINT THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER SEEMS THAT TOTALLY NOT AWARE THE IMPORTANCE OF THE ISSUE. TOYOTA PUT OUR LIVES IN DANGER.

ENGINE
THE ENGINE CONSUMES OIL AT AN ALARMING RATE SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR 15 YEARS AGO. TOLD A TOYOTA SHOP FOREMAN ME ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HE TOLD ME THAT TOYOTA DOESN'T WANT TO ADMIT ANY FAULT. HE SAID THEY MADE THE PISTONS TOO SMALL AND THE RINGS TOO BIG. HE IS A CLOSE FRIEND WHO KNOWS I TAKE CARE OF MY CARS EXTREMELY WELL. HE SAID TO JUST KEEP NURSING THE CAR LIKE I DO. AND FOR 15 YEARS I HAVE BEEN NURSING MY CAR EVERY WEEK I CHECK THE OIL. IF IT IS A SLIGHT BIT LOW I WILL ADD OIL TO THE FULL LINE. THIS IS THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE THE CAR LAST, IF I LET IT GO AND DIDN'T CHECK THE OIL, THERE WOULD BE NOTHING LEFT IN THE CRANKCASE, THE ENGINE WOULD PROBABLY SEIZE UP BECAUSE OF LACK OF OIL. I NOTICED THIS CONDITION WITH THE ENGINE WHEN I BOUGHT THE CAR 15 YEARS AGO USED. THE CAR WAS A YEAR AND HALF OLD. I CALLED TOYOTA ABOUT IT BACK THEN IN THE YEAR OF 2000 AND THEY DENIED ANY PROBLEM OR RECALL LIKE THEY STILL DO TODAY. SINCE THEN, I HAVE CONFRONTED OTHER TOYOTA COROLLA OWNERS WITH THE SAME YEAR AS MINE GIVE A TAKE A YEAR OR TWO AND THEY HAVE ALL STATED THAT YES THERE OIL WAS EXTREMELY LOW ALSO. ONE STRANGER I WALKED UP TO IN THE PARKING LOT SAID TO ME "YES, I ADD OIL TO IT EVERY WEEK." SO TO SUM THINGS UP. I FEEL THAT TOYOTA SHOULD COMPENSATE OWNERS LIKE ME WHO HAVE FAITHFULLY ADDED OIL TO THE ENGINE EVERY WEEK FOR THE PAST 15 YEARS THAT I HAVE OWNED THAT CAR. TOYOTA SHOULD BE SUED FOR NOT BEING HONEST ABOUT THEIR OIL BURNING ENGINES FOR THE 1998 TO 2002 COROLLA MODEL YEAR. THERE IS NO OIL LEAKING UNDER THE CAR AT ALL AND ALL OF THE GASKETS ON THE ENGINE ARE DRY WITH NO LEAKS. THE INTERIOR OF THE TAILPIPE HAS ALOT OF BLACK SOOT INDICATING OIL CONSUMPTION WITHIN THE ENGINE.

ENGINE
ONCE GAIN AFTER GETTING A NEW ENGINE PUT INTO THIS CAR 3 MONTHS BACK, OUR CAR EXPERIENCED YET ANOTHER PROBLEM - THE OXYGEN GAUGE IN THE EXHAUST SYSTEM WHICH IS ATTACHED TO THE ENGINE'S EXHAUST MANIFOLD HAS GONE BAD. WHILE DRIVING THE CAR TO WORK, THE ENGINE LIGHT AND VSC ILLUMINATES AGAIN. I WAS UNDER THE IMPRESSION, THIS IS THE DEALERSHIP'S FAULT SINCE IT DEALING WITH THE ENGINE, OR UNDER WARRANTY, BUT NOPE. I ENDED UP PAYING FOR THE REPAIR AGAIN. I HAVE NEVER DEALT WITH SO MANY PROBLEMS IN A SINGLE CAR. THIS CAR IS ACCIDENT FREE AND NEVER HAD ANY MAJOR DAMAGES DONE. I BELIEVE THIS CAR IS A FAULTY CAR AND COULD BE A RISK FACTOR TO MYSELF, MY FAMILY AND OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

AIR BAGS, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS STAY ON WHEN DRIVING, REGARDLESS OF WHERE TO DRIVE. HAVING THE VEHICLE CHECKED AT TOYOTA DEALER IN CONCORD, CA. THEY FOUND SPIRAL CABLE, LOCATED ON OR AT STEERING COLUMN, DEFECTIVE. AND IF LEFT UNFIXED, ACCORDING TO MY UNDERSTANDING, THE AIRBAG ON DRIVER SIDE POTENTIALLY UNEXPECTED DEPLOYED OR WONT DEPLOY AT ALL AT TIME OF ACCIDENT. THIS IS A SCARY SAFETY CONCERN TO ME, COSTLY BUT IT NEED TO BE FIXED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. HOPE TOYOTA WILL COVER OR SHARE THE COST WITH ME, ~$500 AT ESTIMATE.
